As I plan and prepare for a 2015 season, I realize that I still feel very strongly about what we have created with Spec Class Racing. While growth and change are inevitable and constant, I believe that the formula of low cost, high parity racing is where it is at. Below I have formulated a simple rules proposal which will allow current riders to remain in the game with minimal investment and open the door for new riders and the newer machines. 2015 CCS rules proposal for GTUL and ULTB: As per the request of CCS, I prepared a brief rules proposal which I believe would satisfy the desire of all members and potential members of the ultra light racing scene whether they are interested in building their machine or running a super sport style class. Please see my email to the CCS rules committee below. [email protected] [email protected] To whom it may concern at CCS racing, I am writing in response to your request for 2015 rules recommendations. This proposal pertains to the two ultra light classes, Ultra light thunder bike and GT Ultra light. The majority of riders who contend these classes are those who are looking for an economical entry point to the sport. As demonstrated by the Florida riders in 2012 and 2013, there is also a high demand for horse power parity. While some of the other classes provide the horsepower parity, they are costly to contend due to the high power output which causes a higher level of tire consumption. Allowing for modifications eliminates many would be contenders who do not have the resources from competition. While previous requests to revert the class to 250 Super sport have been denied on the basis that the 300cc machines have been introduced, the majority of the machines on the grid are still stock 250cc machines. Therefore I would like to present the following solutions. 1. I propose that the GTUL class be revised to limit the modifications to that of a Super Sport class. With the exception of the the 250cc machines which should be allowed to change cylinders, pistons and fuel induction system in order to increase the displacement size to 300cc as well as allow proper fuel metering for the change. The compression should not be more than that of the current Kawasaki Ninja 300. The air cooled 350 twin stipulation could remain as is. 2. I propose that the ULTB class remain as is with no changes, therefore remaining the builders class. In implementing these changes, both the existing 250 machines and the new comer 300 cc machines will both have a fair place to race, while still keeping the costs down for the GTUL riders. Those who desire to modify would also have a place to demonstrate their abilities on a level playing field in ULTB. In implementing these changes you will be providing a platform for all riders, not just that of the stock mind set or modified mind set. Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to your response. Regards, Miguel Chirino CCS Expert #38 Racers, If you are in favor of the above proposal (spec member or not) or have something to add or remove. Please send your proposal to CCS and let them hear your opinion. CCS asks that you call, write or email your proposal prior to the November deadline.
